| 101 | ## Frequently Asked Questions |
| 102 | |
| 103 | ### Why build this plugin? |
| 104 | |
| 105 | Hoping that this is useful in reducing the number of plugins we install the first time we set up a site. |
| 106 | |
| 107 | ## Changelog |
| 108 | |
| 109 | ### 3.2.0 (2022.12.12) |
| 110 | |
| 111 | * **[ADDED] Utilities >> Manage ads.txt and app-ads.txt**: Easily edit and validate your ads.txt and app-ads.txt content. Please backup existing ads.txt and app-ads.txt content and remove those files before copying the original content into the ads.txt and app-ads.txt manager in the Utilities tab. If no ads.txt / app-ads.txt files exist in the root directory of your WordPress installation, you can immediately add content for both files. |
| 112 | |
| 113 | ### 3.1.0 (2022.12.11) |
| 114 | |
| 115 | * **[ADDED] Content Management >> Enable Auto-Publishing of Posts with Missed Schedule**: Trigger publishing of scheduled posts of all types marked with "missed schedule", anytime the site is visited. Uses Transients API to reduce load to the DB on busy sites. Will only query the DB once every 15 minutes (at most). |
| 116 | |
| 117 | ### 3.0.6 (2022.12.08) |
| 118 | |
| 119 | * **[CHANGED] Admin Interface >> Admin Menu Organizer**: Enqueue jQuery UI widget.min.js for WP version less than 5.6.0. This ensures the feature works for those WP versions. |
| 120 | |
| 121 | ### 3.0.5 (2022.12.08) |
| 122 | |
| 123 | * **[CHANGED] Admin Interface >> Admin Menu Organizer**: Enqueue the minified version of jQuery UI scripts, as older versions of WP do not have the unminified version. |
| 124 | |
| 125 | ### 3.0.4 (2022.12.07) |
| 126 | |
| 127 | * **[CHANGED] Admin Interface >> Admin Menu Organizer**: Substantially lower priorities of actions that handles rendering of custom menu order, custom menu title and hiding of menu items. This is so that menu items added late by active plugins and theme are handled properly. |
| 128 | |
| 129 | ### 3.0.3 (2022.12.07) |
| 130 | |
| 131 | * **[CHANGED] Admin Interface >> Admin Menu Organizer**: Make sure menu item sortables reflect custom menu order saved in options, especially when this feature is re-enabled. Remove all HTMl tags and content inside them from menu item titles in the sortables. |

| 133 | ### 3.0.2 (2022.12.07) |
| 134 | |

| 136 | |
| 137 | ### 3.0.1 (2022.12.01) |
| 138 | |
| 139 | * **[CHANGED] Admin Interface >> Admin Menu Organizer**: Make sure newer menu items added by newly installed plugins or activated theme are showing up towards the end of the admin menu and the menu item sortables. Comments and updates counters are now hidden. Sortables for menu separators have been faded out to make actual menu items stand out more. |
| 140 | * **[CHANGED] Disable Components >> Disable Comments**: Ensure trackbacks metabox is also hidden on edit screens of post types where commenting is disabled. |
| 141 | |
| 142 | ### 3.0.0 (2022.11.30) |
